Like per comment above, if you are running plain Fedora 40 as following 6.9.4-200.fc40.x86_64 and VMware Workstation pro 17.5.2 build-23775571 here the step i did.
$ git clone -b tmp/workstation-17.5.2-k6.9.1 https://github.com/nan0desu/vmware-host-modules.git $ cd vmware-host-modules/ $ tar -cf vmmon.tar vmmon-only $ tar -cf vmnet.tar vmnet-only $ sudo cp -v vmmon.tar vmnet.tar /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/ $ sudo vmware-modconfig --console --install-all
Thanks a lot worked perfectly for me, Fedora 40 as following 6.9.4-200.fc40.x86_64 and VMware Workstation pro 17.5.2 build-23775571.

Works like a charm! Fedora 40 6.9.5-200.fc40.x86_64 both with VMWare Workstation 17.5.1 and 17.5.2 bundles.

I'd like to simplify sequence, FYI:
git clone -b tmp/workstation-17.5.2-k6.9.1 https://github.com/nan0desu/vmware-host-modules.git
cd vmware-host-modules/
sudo make tarballs && sudo cp -v vmmon.tar vmnet.tar /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/
sudo vmware-modconfig --console --install-all
Works like a charm on:
VMware Workstation 17.5.2 build-23775571
Distro: Fedora Linux 40 (KDE Plasma)
Kernel: 6.9.6-200.fc40.x86_64

This helped me, kudos
Thanks a lot for the help, works perfectly on my system:
VMware Workstation 17.5.2
Distro: Fedora 40 KDE Spin
Kernel: 6.9.7-200.fc40.x86_64
There is one more important aspect of using modified code ( https://github.com/nan0desu/vmware-host-modules ), which seems to have escaped the previous speakers and is worth mentioning:
this time, after installing modified drivers compared to the original project ( https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules ), the vmware-netcfg
command works without any problems.
To sum up - now everything works (at this moment) in any iteration and subversion of the 6.9 kernel.
I literally tried everything to run VMware on my Fedora 40 6.9.7 GNOME. After running the script it says it couldnt start vmware.service, but i can start vmware, once i want to start a VM it still says few modules are missing. Btw im using 17.5.2 Workstation Pro
Thank you
Thank you so much for this working on Vmware 17.6 on Debian Testing with kernel 6.10.9-amd64
Getting the following errors, any ideas?
